I bought my '07 Roadliner this past January and am really loving it.

One thing's been buggin' me. When deccelerating the exhaust pops quite a bit. And sometimes when I rev the engine at a stop, the engine has had hiccups which on a couple of occasions resulted in a stall. Has anyone else experienced this, or should I have a tech look at it? I thought the exhaust valve was suppose to smooth these things out. I would appreciate some input.
